REMARKS

In connection with this report, present one
bill, that of q. J. Mayer, Esq for painting Court
House. This bill does not represent the full
amount received by MT. Mayer, as the work done
desks, tables and book cases, was separate
job for which there separate bills. The
amount received by Mr.. Mayer. is shown In our
report under the heading Painting Court House.
A great many persons having expressed the opin-
Ion that this bill is enormous and others holding
up the Commissioners to r1dicule, for not making
a letting OF this job, we lere introduce the bill
that the taxpayers may be enabled to Judge for
themselves as to the business of said bill, that
Mr.. Mayer. well as the County Commissioners
may be fairly and honestly represented.

Many persons using Athlophoros Tor
rheumatism and neural ia have been
surprised to find that chronic disorders of
ths liver and kidneys have also been
Greatly relieved and they have written
Tor an explanation. The fact Is, that the
remedy acts directly on these organs,
cleansing them from all irritating sub
stances and regulating their action. Taken
in connection with Athlophoros Pills this
is without exception, the most valuable
kidney and liver remedy in the world, and
will cure a large proportion Of those who
have these diseases.

SCROEuLA

Usually develops in early life,
and is a peculiar morbid con-
dition of the system, usually
affecting the glands, often re-
Sulting in swellings, enlarged
joints, assesses, thickening
Of the lips, enlarged neck, sore
eyes. A scrofulous condition
is often hereditary, but bad
diet, too free use Of fat meats,
bad air, want of sunshine and
nOurishing food will induce
1t. Some people are troubled
with scrofulous swelling Of the
glands, and with ulcers and
kernels, which may cause very
little pain; others may have in
ward scPofula, scPofula of the
lungs, scrofula Of the spleen,
scrOfula Of the Kidneys, and
scrofula Of the bones. BUR-
DOCK BLOOD BITTERS will
drive away any case ofscPofula
ana not to appear in another
place, for their action on the
blood and bowels will carry the
disease entirely from the body.

THE NEW PENSION BUILDING.

The new Pension building is nearing COM
pletion. have information from the architect
in charge that he cannot add elevators. having
no appropriation for that purpose. There are
spaces left in the building for two and am
informed that the moderate cost of each of
them will be $1,000. In the estimates submit
ted through the Treasury to Congress have
asked for the sum of $4,000 for the two ele-
vators.
/ desire to say here, in addition to the mere
formal statement, that probably more people
enter the Bureau of Pensions who are unfit to
ascend and descend stairs than in any other
Government building anywhere. Thousands of
people come from great distances to see about
the adjudication of their claims who are too
weak or too lameto mount even the easy steps
70 the new Pension building without assistance
aud without discomfort.
A large number of those employed in the
office, and who by the assignment OF the divis-
ions 10 quarters are compelled to occupy the
third and fourth stories, are not fit physically
for the eXertiOn involved in ascending and de-
scending the stairs.
The report of the Superintendent of the build
ing shows that at the time the Census Office
was dismantled the Bureau of Pensions fell
heir 10 its long used and much abused furniture
IL has been patched, repaired, revamped, and re-
vanished; il Is old and rickety, and should be
condemned and replaced with new; and an ap-
preparation has been asked for to enable the
Commissioner TO make the proper replacement
And so with regard TO other suggestions made
by the Superintendent which have received
the Commissioners consideration and approval
notably the item for repairs and improve
ment the necessity for which always exists in
every building, even when new; for it will not
be found, as a rule. completely adapted to its
purposes until tried and added to in those
minute and inexpensive details which go to ft
il for actual occupancy.
The great passageways are left without
wainscoting, and the walls will constantly be-
come defaced by the passing thousands. Nc
ordinary care can prevent this. A wainscoting
of tile or marble should be added at an early
date. Estimates covering these expenses are
submitted elsewhere.
The experience of the past Summer has de-
monstrated that the upper rooms of the new Pen.
sion building are substantially uninhabitable
and cannot be used except as fiIe-rooms, owing
10 the great heat thereof. The record of the
thermometer will demonstrate this, and al
arrangements for the future use of the building
should take into view the fact that the upper
story can substantially never be used except a
above stated. The building was not designed
originally for such use. and no modification
that has been or will be made can completed,
| remedy the trouble.

CURRENT WORK.


In addition to the current work, the great
volume of which is indicated by the tables here
tofore cited, the old files of the Bureau of PEN
sions have been carefully overhauled, with n
view TO admitting such claims as by inadyert-
ence might have been passed when they were
really ready for admission. This overhauling
has resulted in adding considerable number
oi claimants TO the pension list, and i do not
now know of cases completed which are not
disposed of. The Bureau of Pensions is now
engaged upon current business. This condition
OF affairs has been brought about in part by the
earnest exertion OF the Adjutant-Gen of the
Army of the United States and DIR. Ainsworth,
who has had charge in the War Department of
the certification of surgical records to the
Bureau Of Pensions Most gratifying results
have followed their prompt and vigorous in
terpositlon, and as rule Mt this time reports
called for from the Surgeon General are re-
ceived back into the Bureau of Pensions fully
honored In the period of five days. The vast
arrears which existed at the opening of the
| year have been cut OF, and / am indebted TO
the Secretary of War and his able assistants for
very much OF the good results which mark the
record of the yer.
ESTIMATES.
The estimates WHICH have submitted in the
manner pointed out by law. through the Secre-
| tary OF the Interior and the Secretary of the
Treasury, are just aud reasonable in every re-
spect. 1 ask especially that no curtailment
may be made of the amounts to be paid for the
Special Examination Division, which must be
IRON time to time enlarged to meet the emer-
| gencies OF the service and the multiplication Of
crime.
During the past year a large number Of con-
victions Teimbursements, and repayments have
been made, and wholesome regard for the
power of the Government instiled into the
| minds OF tho criminal classes
with high respect, have the honor to be,
very truly yours JOHN q. BLACK,
